Highlights for September: Unification unveils autonomous machine learning-based smart contracts; Development of universal sign-in system continues; New team members announced; Unification speaks at Beyond Blocks

September brought massive development wins for Unification. This month, we unveiled new features designed to support enterprise partners. These include autonomous machine learning-based smart contracts and a Unified Verifiable Credentials Identification (UVCID) system.

Autonomous Machine Learnable Smart Contracts (AMLSC) announced

For months, Unification has been developing data standardization processes using machine learning and artificial intelligence. During September, the development team has been building upon existing features within the Unification ecosystem to launch Autonomous Machine Learnable Smart Contracts (AMLSC).

AMLSC are smart contracts that can be dynamically updated in real time based on certain conditions. They are self-editing contracts that can be programmed to change over time.

Unification’s machine learning engineer, Farshad Niayesh, explained details of how AMLSC work in his article, “How Unification Standardizes Data With Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning.”

Development of Unified Verifiable Credentials Identification (UVCID) continues

One of Unification’s core offerings to enterprises is its Unified Verifiable Credentials Identification (UVCID) system. This system is designed to unite each user’s diffuse accounts under a single ID marker.

The UVCID system allows consumers the ease of a single sign-in between the various apps on the Unification platform, while also allowing enterprises to more broadly correlate a specific user’s data across apps.

Further technical details about how ID markers are mapped across diverse systems can be found in the article “How Unification Standardizes Data With Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning.”

Coming up in October

Full unveiling of AMLSC

Stay tuned for a full write-up of the processes that Unification is utilizing to build out Autonomous Machine Learnable Smart Contracts. We’ll be sharing the technical nuts and bolts of how these dynamic smart contracts function.

Implementing UVCID with partner apps

Unification continues to roll out our UVCID in partner apps such as CoinSparrow (described in this use case article). Expect to see further UVCID integration, as well as articles further describing its tech implementation.

Addition of new partners

We are ramping up talks with potential enterprise partners and plan to add new partnerships over the coming months. Be sure to follow our Medium publication for the latest announcements.
